'HOTEL HELL' - Dumbbell CrossFit WOD (13:44 Rx)

"HOTEL HELL"
For Time
100 Dumbbell Hang Clean Thrusters (Clusters) (2x35/25 lb)
5 Burpees to start, and at the top of each minute

Start with 5 burpees. Then complete as many hang squat clean thrusters (aka: “hang clusters”) as possible until the minute is up. Repeat until 100 total are completed. If athlete does not finish score is number of rounds and reps completed.

We picked a target time of 14 minutes and calculated that we'd have to do 7 clusters per round, plus two 8-rep rounds to get sub-14. It ended up taking us 40-45 seconds per round, leaving 15-20 seconds of rest each round. Around half way through (50 clusters) it started getting pretty spicy! Following the same rep scheme and staying in-sync the whole time, we finished in 13:44 (Lisa) and 13:46 (Jeremy).

one of the best crossfit workout you can do at home. it hits almost all body parts. very good cardio. if you don't have time to workout then you can do this crossfit workout. this is my FAVORITE EXERCISE. it can really be HELL for beginners and first timers. the first time i did this workout my whole body became sore for 3 days but it was worth it. i still do this workout 1-2x a wk, i just added abs workout during active rest. i highly recommend this WOD for everybody. for beginners try to lower the reps and shorten the time to 5-7 min. just do mini hotel hell until you are able to follow along till the end of the session.

Watched your video yesterday and thought it would be fun! Got it done in 12:59! Plan was to do 9 sets of 8 and then 4 sets of 7, but ended up doing 7 sets of 8, 4 sets of 7, 1 set of 6 and last set of 10... finished with a second to spare, and omg it was exhausting! I kept saying to my they made it look so easy! I was breathing so loud. Thanks for the workout.

Good to see you guys again, love the vids and WODS

[jasonjohnson]

Hey guys that looked tuff. only been crossfit for 6 months so only now starting to look at pacing as before just trying to finish the WODS plus within Time limits when set. I found the walk through very helpful as I can start to apply this to other workouts. Nice one..👍
